Hello, I am wondering which model goes to which countries....
Specifically I am wondering if the snapdragon version with dual Sim slot exist...
From gsmarena we have the different models:
SM-S901B, SM-S901B/DS, SM-S901U, SM-S901U1, SM-S901W, SM-S901N, SM-S9010, SM-S901E, SM-S901E/DS
I am guessing the DS = dual Sim (physical, and with or without esim)
But which one is snapdragon and which one is exynoss and which one is for what market...
Does anyone knows this?
Here in India we are getting the Snapdragon variant ! I believe in Europe and UK the Exynos Variant, in US, Asia and UAE the Snapdragon, not much sure about the model numbers though !

Correct, I've seen which variant is sold where... But I have not found any mention about the model number or the Sim options... :|
Based on the firmware page at sammobile, the
SM-S901E should be the Snapdragon version available at Asia, Pacific, Africa and Latin America;
and SM-S901B only lists countries from Europe, so should be the Exynos one.
we need to discover what are the W, U and N variants.
my guess that one is for North America, one for South Korea and one for China.

Aaa that would be good news as there is the SM-S901E/DS which would mean they do do a snapdragon with dual Sim card (not just esim)
They could do, and probably will do, but only for some specific markets. Here at Brazil all models being sold are 1 SIM + eSIM.
Edit: indeed they are 2 SIM + eSIM, so being the 901E/DS version. I didnt notice the double side tray until today.

Darn... So it's gonna be a bit more complicated to figure out what's going to which market...
In Serbia, our operators offer the Exynos model, which comes with 2 SIMs + 1 eSIM.
For the first time here in Brazil, we a getting snapdragon version, S901E DS. I may be wrong,, but I think B is the only Exynos version, S901B
Yeah I am getting the feeling that only the Exynos version has 2 SIMs + eSIM...
and that there is no snapdragon version with 2 SIMs (only 1 SIM + eSIM)

aaa great! so you have the SM-S901E/DS
Perfecto!
Germany:
SM-S901BZWGEUB
is S22 exinos 256gb white with 2 SIM + eSIM. However, you can either use 2 SIM or 1 SIM + eSIM.
The US version is SM-S901U and SM-S901U1 with Snapdragon.
Mine came with a single SIM card tray but has support for eSIM.
I wish I could add a second physical SIM card to it, especially since the SIM card slot in the phone has contacts on both sides of the tray.

Did you do anything to enable that "download eSIM" option?
I have the exact same model but I have no such option.

Did you ever find a solution to your question? I recently got a hold of a 910t and want to replace the mobo with my old 910w8 one. Were the parts all compatible? Thanks in advance!

Hello the 910w8 mother board is diffrent than 910t.
Why are you trying to replace the motherbord?
You would need to replace all of the chips on the board and it is possible that it won't work. Usually if you replace the MD with a non compatable one the issue with that is that the board can't read it because of the chips are locked and you would need to do an physical unlock method via pin method.
I am not sure if you are still stuck on replacing this phone.
My brother has 910w8 that is working just replaced the battery too. He had it since 2014. lol.
Long story short. I can try to convince my brother to sell u his phone so you can do the chip swap if u needed to recover the data. Let me know tnx.

Hello not sure if your interested, I can sell you my brothers phone. It is from Fido carrier Canada Ontario. The model is N910W8. I am from Saint. Catharines , Ontario. I can do a reset on it to make it back to factory settings (if you wanna buy it). $150.00 I'd sell you the phone for. which is cheep
For me to understand your question more please give me more details on what you are trying to do. Are you replacing all of the chips on the motherboard from an N910T to an N910W8?
For carrier reasons you can call your carrier and have your phone geo-unlocked for free to work on all networks.
I am very experienced with phones.

i think i need to hospital for mind treatment
pls suggest me thnx
no reply i m disappointed
only tell me how it possible to bandwidth change in moto e4 i install mtk sof bt not working
Verizon model is not mtk. It's Qualcomm. You can't flash different firmware. If you can get the msl number you can change bands, but the device doesn't have all bands.
You need either root (not possible on Verizon, locked bootloader) or your msl number from the phones original carrier. That's why no one has answered.
Not likely any viable solution for you

I was curious about the different hardware variants of the 7T and decided to ask support once EU launch went over and they kindly answered.
HD1900: China
HD1901: India
HD1903: Europe
HD1905: North America
HD1907: T-Mobile USA
These are model numbers. Codename are some names. guacamoleb, onyx, falcon, titan etc,.

No, actually there are different LTE bands available per region. The difference is less significative than, for instance, on 1+7, but they're still there (and the reason why I need to get the NA version, in my case).

So did having read that, if there is a 256GB EU version, get that as it has the B66, according to the Connectivity section: Bands (EU) FDD-LTE:B1,2,3,4,5,7,8,12,13,17,18,19,20,25,26,28,29,32,66
but I don't think they did
No 256gb variant that was released has band 66.

Appreciate this insight man!!
I'm in the US, NYC/NJ. I was super torn. I wanted to upgrade my op5. I wasn't a big fan of the pop up camera or the curved edges of the 7 Pro...plus I wanted a T.
The MacLaren edition is really nice, but...popup camera and like 400 more than the Chinese 7T. I couldn't justify it. So I took a chance and ordered the HD1900 Chinese version of the 7T with 265gb. So far, after about two weeks, it's excellent. I have no issues with not having a fast connection

No issues with not having a connection. Maybe it's because I'm in an area with good coverage (t-mobile). But so far, for $500 - HD1900 has been excellent.

Got the 7T rooted...no problems. Not used to doing it without TWRP, but it all worked fine. Magisk, root all working flawlessly. For 500, the 256gb hd1900 has been excellent. I know it didn't have band 66 (or something) but in NYC and Quebec I haven't noticed any problems. I'm coming from an OP5 and mobile connectivity is at least as good with the OP7T HD1900.
For me, the decision came down to value. I wanted the 256gb, which ruled out the US OP7T. The OP7 Pro is nice and I came close to choosing it but I don't like the curved screen edges and I'm not a fan of the pop up camera. The notch doesn't bother me. So, no 7T pro either. The t-mobile McLaren edition was tempting...12gb ram, 5g. But at almost twice the price...not worth it. So far very happy with the hd1900 in the US with the 256gb.
Once I got it rooted, of course.

Is it possible to flash from an "F" DS to a "FN" DS ROM to enable NFC?
So I just realized my new A505 F/DS does not have NFC while I was setting up Google Pay. It's the one feature I used very often with my old phone at point of sales, so I am really depressed about it. Before I attempt to return the phone, is it possible to just flash the FN ROM? Assuming that the hardware exists?

Could that mean that the A505F and A505FN use the same motherboard, but nfc is disabled on the software's side for the A505F's manufactured in Vietnam? If so flashing the FN rom could enable nfc??

There is a NFC chip in Samsung A50. The part number is GH42-06264A . So, even though the model number is same, they may manufacture with or without the hardware. If the hardware is there, they may have disabled it. For ex: All Non-US Mobile phone manufacturers were asked to disable NFC chip by the US government.
Also, You need DRM keys to enable the hardware. As far as I know, there are no such keys released by Samsung
Looking for possible work arounds no way I'm buying a $1700. phone with Dual and eSIM disabled.
Done carrying around 2 phones
Wouldn't buying an international version be a solid option or would the US carriers still not support or disable the option ?
Galaxy Z Fold 3 has two physical SIM slots and an eSIM (but not in the US)

Samsung's Z Flip 3, Z Fold 3 Are Both Single-SIM in the UShttps://www.pcmag.com/news/samsungs-z-flip-3-z-fold-3-are-both-single-sim-in-the-us
yeha I am totally bummed out again. I have a S21 thinking I was able to use eSIM in the US...still nothing. Now that I am getting the Fold 3... it's going to be same.
Samscum. Go ahead blame the carriers. I dare you, I double dare you.
Wondering whether we can flash EU or south american ROM on our us U our U1 model, as all fold 3 models come with snapdragon processor now? This is how I was able to get esim on US unlocked Note20 ultra U1 by flashing T-Mobile ROM.

Thats a good question Is eSIM still working on it ?
I don't see much up to date rom action in the note 20 ultra development forums no official LineageOS maybe better off just waiting for the Pixel Fold ?

I mean, I'm not disagreeing that Sammy is not partly to blame here, but T-Mobile did make the call to unlock esim on the Note 20 even after samsung refused to give esim to even unlocked models. So I do think carriers have some say in the matter as well.
I ordered the T-mobile version of the device through Samsung........assuming it will come with T-mobile SIM card, what do I do to activate, just put in the SIM and go online to T-mobile to activate the device?
I hate NA! I wish we have eSIM. I really do need two lines on my primary
I noticed there are sim pins on top and bottom when I was inserting my sim. The tray is single, but looks like it has the hardware for 2 sims.
So which one do you use?
Hello. It it known if there are any NA carriers that support eSim for Fold3 owners?

Why does it say “SIM 1” if there is only one SIM. My guess is that there is an esim but de-activated that is why the physical sim is named that way.
also on the back of the sim tray , looks like another sim card can fit. I am yet to get my fold3, but anyone with fold3 can see if a sim card sits on the back of the tray as well (PLEASE DONT INSERT IT IN THE PHONE )

Look inside the sim tray opening with a light, you see gold contacts for sim card on top and bottom. Assuming or sim 1 and 2

so theoretically if we get a UK version sim tray , it should be easier to try and see if the dual nano sim work.
and then the question is can we flash the UK/EUROPEAN FIRMWARe to the US phone given that the hardwares are exactly the same (other than the LTE, BANDS ACCESS MODULE)
